On further reflection, it seems to me that something like deletion  
might better be hidden in the collection details dialog. This is an  
approach similar to Google Reader, where deletion is hidden in a  
special "feed management" dialog. Deletion seems to me like something  
that is infrequently desired, and giving it the same amount of real  
estate as create feels wrong.
